Kewen Lin 103cba80bd [rs6000] Make load cost a bit more in vectorization cost
To align with rs6000_insn_cost costing more for load type insns,
this patch is to make load insns cost more in vectorization cost
function.  The latency of load insns is about twice that of
"simple" instructions; 2 vs. 1 on older cores, and 4 (or so) vs.
2 on newer cores.  Considering that the result of load usually
is used somehow later (true-dep) but store won't, we keep the
store as before.

The SPEC2017 performance evaluation on Power8 shows 525.x264_r
+9.56%, 511.povray_r +2.08%, 527.cam4_r 1.16% gains, no 
significant degradation, SPECINT geomean +0.88%, SPECFP geomean
+0.26%.

The SPEC2017 performance evaluation on Power9 shows no significant
improvement or degradation, SPECINT geomean +0.04%, SPECFP geomean
+0.04%.

The SPEC2006 performance evaluation on Power8 shows 454.calculix
+4.41% gain but 416.gamess -1.19% and 453.povray -3.83% degradation.
I looked into the two degradation bmks, the degradation were NOT
due to hotspot changes by vectorization, were all side effects.
SPECINT geomean +0.10%, SPECFP geomean no changed considering
the degradation.

2019-11-11  Kewen Lin  <linkw@gcc.gnu.org>

    * config/rs6000/rs6000.c (rs6000_builtin_vectorization_cost): Make
    scalar_load, vector_load, unaligned_load and vector_gather_load cost
    more to conform hardware latency and insn cost settings.

some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the
individual source files for details.

The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information
as HTML and plain text.  The source of this information is
gcc/doc/install.texi.  The installation information includes details
of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs.

See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it
includes) for usage and porting information.  An online readable
version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*.

notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range,
